No Errors until 9. Where totally failed to read the map looking at veg boundaries instead of contours. Lost contact with Scott Simpson here who caught me at 4. Slow to 10. Went past it too low. Then too low to 11. Not very happy with today’s result. Hoping for top 5 in M45A. Oh well still have 4 more years.

Started off very badly not seeing the easy route choice to the right around the dam wall. Ended up way to far south. Bit tentative going down to 4. Wrong route choice to 6 - went around the spur. Just slow to 9. Then the mental disintegration of the long leg to 10 had me walking around the massive hill until I was caught by Greg Morcom. Kept him within sight until 12. Got to focus on running hard when I am by myself. Going to push it tomorrow and see what happens.

Day 2 Course 7 - Splits

Felt surprisingly good running even when fatigued going up hills! As a result going too fast and made lots of small(er) errors. 1. Tried to go left and stay high around fully but ended up way beneath control. 2. Went too far right 3. Good 4. Good 5. Ok 6. Went way left to avoid the big gully and went around the cliff tops 7. Went left again - didn’t solve any time and overshot control looking for a massive cairn. 8. Ok 9. Stppped short and punched wrong control went all the way to 10. Before realising. Back to 9 and 10 11. Slow 12. Sped up and spiked. 13. Went low - track was probably better option. Slow across open erosion gully system to finish. Finished about 5th in my first hit put in M45A.
